Amusing snark

“Edge of Darkness” and “The Red Shoes,” review : The New Yorker

Anthony Lane writes in his review of the new Mel Gibson movie "Edge of Darkness":
Mel Gibson, who looks and sounds not a day over sixty-five*, plays a policeman named Thomas Craven. ...

He wears a loose-fitting suit that he might have picked up at a morgue. “I’m the guy with nothing to lose who doesn’t give a shit,” he says. You’re telling me.

* He has, even I am surprised to learn, only just turned 54. Must be all that church going. Or the drinking and womanising. One or the other.
